Mulkey has been able to lead LSU to a national championship during her time with the program as well as several deep postseason runs.
Last season with the Tigers, they made their way to the Elite Eight in the postseason. LSU defeated San Diego State, Florida State and NC State before playing the UCLA Bruins and losing to the Western Conference foe, 72-65.
After the season, LSU lost a few key contributors, such as Aneesah Morrow, who transitioned to the WNBA.
Despite the loss, they still have one of the best guards in the country, Flau'jae Johnson.
Johnson is currently preparing for her fourth season at LSU, having established herself as a star on and off the court during her time with the Tigers.
